Today I went to my knitting group. We all decided to have a go at knitting Nanny Socks. These, apparently, are a very Canadian thing started by Grandmas (Nannys) who made them for her grandchildren. I managed to knit, sew and add a Pom-Pom to one whole slipper.
I will add this pattern to the blog at some point soon. It's so easy (well I finished it in just over two hours).
Also I managed to finish my owl wrist/arm warmer that I was knitting. (I should sew the ends in and sew on some buttons for eyes).
I am really pleased with it. It was supposed to be a beginner knit (for those who wanted a challenge). It certainly isn't a beginner knit but it wasn't too hard. It's lovely Nd chunky and warm and I can't wait to make my next one although my Knitting lady gave me a pattern for a different wrist warmer which I fancy doing too. Maybe I will be a one sock, one glove, one slipper person and NEVER finish the second ones!

Love those owl wrist warders!!!
ReplyDeleteI must learn to knit one day.
Cute slipper too.
It's so difficult to choose between projects, isn't it?!!!
Have a lovely weekend- we've got quite a bit of snow here, so the kids want to go sledging!
